Reself is an adaptation of self_rebuilder for resigning spu game selfs. A member asked for help resigning some game files that were corrupted with publicly available resigning tools. Resigning the files manually with openssl worked, so I adapted self_rebuilder to resign the selfs.

Usage: reself game.self resigned.self ???

For ??? substitute the firmware version for the resigned self, ex 355: reself game.self resigned.self 355

For npdrm only type 3 (free) is supported.. uses the same key files as fail overflow ps3 tools.

On xp: c:\documents and settings\username\ps3keys.

For npdrm there should be a key called free_klicensee-key in the keys folder. If your self file doesn't use the free klicensee, just back up the free one and make a key file with the klic for the self and name it free_klicensee-key. Scans keys directory and creates a log file, keys_get.log, of incomplete key sets.

For self look at the self info first with scetool, readself, or other tool to check if it is spu self and not ppc. If it's 30MB, it's not a spu self.

Reself is an adaptation of self_rebuilder. It was compiled with mingw, zip includes the 2 msys dll's; place them in same folder as reself.

Update: ReSPRX

Here's a slightly different version for resigning sprx. I only have one game with a sprx, and it does not have sys_proc_param. I also looked at one game update with a sprx, and it does not contain sys_proc_param. Does anyone know if game sprx have any other attribute in the elf sections that needs editing for running on lower firmware?

Tested by backing up a game to internal hdd from retail disc. Edited param.sfo, fixed eboot, and used resprx to resign the sprx. The backed up game runs normally on my cfw console with the resigned files. Here is the tool if someone else wants to test.

Command to resign one file: resprx ### game.sprx

Or for all the sprx in the current directory use the * wildcard symbol: resprx ### *.SPRX

For ### put the firmware version for the resigned sprx; resprx 355 *.SPRX, resprx 341 *.SPRX or whatever. Before running the command there must be a folder named "output" in the working directory to accept the resigned files (or will terminate with fopen error, file/directory not found).

Adapted from self_rebuilder

Uses key files (like failoverflow tools)

Key files go in userprofile/ps3keys, for xp: c:\documents and settings\username\ps3keys

The path that is searched for the key files is listed in the console output.

For help with key files aldo has a useful tool called ps3keys.exe that will generate key files from the scetool key file in the scetool data folder.

This is a beta release; npdrm files not supported.

If testing a game that has already been attempted, note that the system software may cache information from the param.sfo. For possible problems and fixes see the page on param.sfo at ps3devwiki.
